I am immensely proud of my daughter, who after high school went to New Zealand as a volunteer worker – natural science. NZ is far away from home – in fact they are our antipodes – and she did not know anybody there. I never got the opportunity to go when I was young, so a bit envious I was…
She handled it perfectly well and worked with everything from clearing the djungle to setting up traps for rodents and vermin.
This photo reached me after some weeks – and the pride I felt was overwhelming. A working girl, with knife , machete and saw – doing good things for Mother Nature. My Daughter.
Now she is studying to become a dentist, and when finished, she is determined to go back to NZ to live and work there.
For Sylvain Landry – Pride

What a practical and sensible girl, a daughter to be proud of and New Zealand is going to get a great new citizen.
Well, thank you for your lovely comment! As a mother I of course believe so…
We will welcome her!
I’m sure you will! And she will not rest until all teeth on New Zealand are whole, white and shiny…
😀
What a star she is, Ann Christine. No wonder you’re so proud of her achievements. 🙂
Thank you, Sylvia! I believe all parents should be proud of their children!
This is pretty cool – she looks like she is loving the experience. You are proud and should be!
I am, thank you! She isn’t big, but she’s tough. She has been doing Kung Fu and long sword fighting as well…
I love it! Good for her ~
Pretty pride… Children are pleasure, surprises and pride….
Well done for the challenge…
Be proud….
Thank you, Sylvain – Children are the essence of living.
Good on her. She really is a daughter to be proud of.

Good for her. I’d be proud, too.
